This corruption is all the life long "professional" representatives who drive around in limos, who order the IRS to investigate enemies, who travel on first class junkets to exotic places, who are wined and dined and feted

And who exactly did any of that? All we know so far is that a lobbyist ripped off his clients, and the MSM would love to make it a blanket condemnation of the GOP. And that's enough evidence for you???

BTW, I don't know who you think can order the IRS to investigate "enemies" - but "professional" representatives wouldn't describe anyone who could.

You're kidding, right? More appropriately who isn't doing it. And for the record, I'm referring to both parties when I make my snotty comments.

As God is my witness, I don't see any end to this activity until we, the electorate, their bosses, rise up and demand accountability and integrity. IMO, they get to D.C. with all kinds of altruistic ideals, the oldtimers sit them down and tell them the facts, and then they all fall into line - whoring for money, just like everyone else who went before them.

I've been there. I've been inside some of the offices on K Street. I've been to the Palm, and I've seen how the rich and powerful play their games. And how the MSM sucks up to them so they'll come on their shows or do their interviews. And I know that once the legislators get a taste of it they never want to go home.

I think about the only person who hasn't bought into the fame game is Ron Paul. The rest of them are in various stages of whoring so that they can stay at the seat of power, sucking up the spotlight, strutting, and making their deals.

And the real irony of it all is the fact that they're all climbing the power ladder with our $$money$$ - Because WE ARE THE ONLY ENTITY IN AMERICA WHO PRODUCE ANYTHING OF VALUE. And the dirty little secret is that all they're trained to do is take it from us.

Yeah. I'm tired of it. I really don't much care who this current scandal takes out. Just once I'd like to see some kind of genuine TURN OVER in the halls of congress. Short of another flight 93, I figure the only way things will ever change is another house banking type scandal because they darned sure won't ever agree to pass term limits!
